Hi all,
Is it possible to take the 686 CentOS 5, install that in virtual machine,
install a custom kernel that is the 486 flavor, take that image and
put it on a 8G CF card - insert that into a small form factor 486 class
machine and have that work?
I am hoping the extra instructions in a 686
When you create a virtual machine don't you have a choice of what type
of processor you want and so forth?
That would be the clean way to do it would it not?

if there is a way to simulate missing opcodes in the kernel - that would
be great also.

I would just find a 486 out in the boneyard.
As I still have a RHL 4.2 486/33 s/ 16 meg of ram in daily
service, I know just what machine to pull and replace
